If the quote is done as above, I can't see why people are confused. Isn't it obvious what is happening?
John, I guess it's a matter of how one's brain is accustomed to thinking. I was always of the ilk... here's something that was stated earlier, and here's my commentary on it. That's how my brain works. I guess for other folks, they'd rather give us their perspective on something and THEN post the excerpted quote... which is like saying, "And oh by the way, here's why I just posted what I did." Sorta backwards to me.
Different strokes for different folks. But with the new forum software version, it appears the developers have made it less straight-forward to post one's comments BEFORE the excerpted text except for folks who like to dig into the source-code editing to do it their way. These days, I stay as far away from source-code editing as I can. Given a choice, I like to take the straight-forward route.
